‘The carbonic-maceration red 2023 Artuke, named after their village in Baños de Ebro, contains some 5% Viura grapes and has a moderate 13.5% alcohol and a pH of 3.5. It's light and fresh, aromatic and floral, open and expressive, quite harmonious for its young age. It was bottled after three to six months in concrete. It's a textbook example of the category and among my favorite carbonic-maceration reds from Rioja year after year. It's velvety and juicy, soft and tasty. It was bottled in late December 2023. 2024-2027’ – Luis Gutiérrez, Wine Advocate, 92/100

Producer information | ‘Artuke has seen one of the best progressions in Rioja in the last few years and is one of the finest young family wineries in the region’, wrote the Wine Advocate and according to Tim Atkin ‘Arturo de Miguel makes some of the greatest reds in Spain.’ Brothers Arturo and Kike de Miguel biodynamically farm 30 hectares of vines planted between 1920 and 2013. Their father and ancestors have been farming the land in the northern part of Rioja Alavesa for over a century. Their goal is to take their winery to the next level thus placing emphasis on the terroir, in order to create wines with remarkable purity. |
